Two going on four, five or six on good night for new Scotland era
Scotland scored twice in North Macedonia but the scoreline does not reflect their dominance in Skopje, writes Tom English.
Scotland's new era started off strong with Andy Robertson becoming the 100th cap for Scotland. The team dominated North Macedonia, with Robertson scoring an early goal and John McGinn adding another. Scotland had 25 shots to North Macedonia's nine, showcasing their better execution. The victory lifted the spirits of head coach Sebastien Pocognoli.
Despite some issues with goal scoring, Scotland showcased promising strikers in Kieron Bowie and Luis Binks. The young Ben Gannon-Doak made a significant impact with his pace and involvement. This win sets the tone for a new era for Scotland football, with potential for growth and improvement.
